PARIS SUPPRESSES Anti-Fascist Newspaper Calls for Death of Mussolini Paris, Dec. 16,--The French Cabinet, ruling that a headline in the current issue of Corriere Degli Italiani, an anti-Fascist Italian newspaper printed in France, con stituted a direct incitement to murder, decided Tuesday to pro- hibit the circulation and sale of the paper. { The heading objected to was: "Onportet Unus Morietgr Homo pro Domo"--*"It is Necessary that a Man Die that the Country Be Saved." It appeared with the Italian and French translations, It wes considered that Mussolini was the man referred to, A note issued by the Minister of the In- terior announced the decision, re- marks that the editor of the paper, Borelli, in answer to repeated warnings, 'promised to maintain its tone in keeping with the duty owel to the gemerous of France--a promise failed to keep."

MONDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1927 a---- GILBERT CONFERS WITH M. POINCARE Director-General of Repara- tions Payment is on Way Home Future of Dawes Plan Re- lated to France's Finan- cial Plan -- Paris, Dec. 1%.--Seymour Park- er Gilbert, the agent-general for reparations payments, who arrived unannounced in Paris Wednesday morning, called in the afternoon equally unheralded upon Premier tion. The utmost secrecy rounded the visit, which was de- scribed by Mr. Gilbert's secretary as merely a "friendly call," and news of the conference only leaked out Wednesday night. It was learned that Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert will sail on the liner Leviathan and will remain in the United States for an indefinite time. The fact that the agent- general's conversation with M, Poincare occurred just at this mo- ment, a matter of but a few days before Mr. Gilbert's annual report is due to be published, and on the eve of the beginning of the Dawes plan's most crucial year, arpused great interest and much specula- tion here. It is regarded as almost certain that M, Poincare would seek in- formation from Mr, Gilbert as to the possibilities of Germany meet- 'ng her first maximum reparations payments--especially some indica. tion as to the amount of payments in gold that France may expect. This is of extreme importance to the Premier and Finance Minister at the present time, while he is shaping a definite plan for the legal stabilization of the franc sometime after the spring elections according to his own admission to his Deputies a few days ago. The problem of a gold reserve is one of the chief factors in suy stabilization and obviously what gold Germany may pay in 1928 will have a direct bearing in M, Poincare's stabilization project, It would séem natural also that the Premier evinces a desire to know Mr, Gilbert's views on the lileli- hood of Germany's meeting all her payments next year following the recent controversy at Perlin over the agent-general's warning to the Reich against excessive expendi- PICKERING -- Pickering, Dee, 12.--Tn spite of & storm' waoich ra ed 1 visho the day, avout 1 5 as sembled at (lo id by t Yiekering M tion, in the xm on Filday eveuing., Jue it, W.

With these words, William P. Eno, world famous traffic auth- ority, and devisor of the original traffic regulations for New York, Paris and London, denies the effi- cacy of the growing system of traf- fie control by means of lights. Eno has jusy returned from Europe, where he studied the forms of traffic control in the large cities, "London, Paris and Brussels, af- ter investigating our traffic lights, we've refused to adopt them," says Eno, "except as red lights for con- trol of traffic only at the intersee- tions where they are located. "The worst impediment to the scientific management of traffic as present," he goes on, "is the attempt to regulate it by a syn- chronized or progressive system of lights instead of by hand. "This system appeals to the average person who has not taken into consideratioin that traffic at intersections varies so greatly in volume and character that what is good for one intersectioin may not be appropriaite for another. "Millions of dollars have already been expended by police depart- ments in the United States for these lights, However, engineers and students of traffic are begin- ning to realize the false economy of mechanically controlled traffic."
